Why in hell should any of the Democrats show up at all? I think they should all abstain by not showing up. This is so fucked up.
Schumer Sounds Alarm Ahead Of Pence ‘Inexplicably’ Exposing Senate To COVID-19 | Talking Points Memo
They need to just boycott this thing altogether.
Best rationale they can use: their own safety.
- spouses
- children
- other relatives and friends
can understand it.
No Democrats For This Sham. Period.
Maybe to force the goopers onto the record as voting for justice handmaid? Takes 51 senators for a quorum, but I’m not sure the vote has to be anything but a simple majority of those voting. So it could be 10-0, with 41 voting “present”.
If I were Schumer then I would just let the republicans have their circle jerk by themselves.
No need to for the D’s to show up.
Looks like we have a consensus.
Too bad for Amy Coney Barrett, who is looking more and more to go down in history as Amy Covid Barrett.
You lie down with rabid dogs, you get up with fleas and rabies.

We are not prepared for a pandemic. Trump has rolled back progress President Obama and I made to strengthen global health security. We need leadership that builds public trust, focuses on real threats, and mobilizes the world to stop outbreaks before they reach our shores. https://t.co/1qqpgayUEX

Vice President Mike Pence will preside over Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation vote
It would be so cool (in a schadenfreudey way) if a GOP senator or two voted No, resulting in a tie that Dense couldn’t break because he has to self-quarantine. I know it’s not going to happen, especially the first part.
Mitch McConnell could even at this late date set up remote voting for senators who do not feel inclined to commit suicide for a supreme court justice confirmation vote.
Just sayin’
Finally, the October surprise that Biden was in on Hillary’s plan to swing the election by releasing WuhanFlu from the lab into the human population.
I like this idea. Don’t forget the sterile gloves.
Hell, go full medical worker head to toe PPE with independent air supply.
Who woulda thought a year ago that it would be required that patrons wear a mask and gloves to enter a bank.
My bank requires a mask.
I agree with rogerhead. Dems should just boycott the vote - since their vote won’t matter anyway. Let the Republicans get sick with Covid.
Actually the "October surprise " is Mark meadows saying trumpland won’t even try to corral the pandemic.

Q-Tip = The ultimate COVID-45 swab…
The only good thing I can see about the post-election COVID scene is the stoppage of superspreader Trump rallies.
Somebody better notify the Fly.
Don’t forget that two of Kelly Loeffler’s aides also tested positive, and Loeffler will in the Senate to spread her germs as well.
Knowing trump and his need…his overpowering need to get ego strokes… I can see him holding rallies on into the future even after being out of office. He is addicted to the juice he gets from a crowd. Cold turkey would be deeply punishing.
